President Javier Milei celebrated the release of the three Argentines kidnapped by the terrorist group Hamas—Eitan Horn, David, and Ariel Cunio—thanks to the mediation of United States President, Donald Trump. The Argentine leader expressed his appreciation to the American leader, whom he considered a "dear friend" and an "example of leadership" for his decisive role in the agreement that ended the war in Gaza.
Through his official X (formerly Twitter) account, Milei wrote:
"My deepest admiration and gratitude to President @realDonaldTrump for his extraordinary leadership and his courage to end the war, also achieving the release of all the hostages, including three Argentines—Eitan Horn, Ariel, and David Cunio—".
The head of state also referred to the case of Lior Rudaeff, an Argentine-Israeli citizen killed during the October 7, 2023 attack, and emphasized the need to recover his body so that his family "can say goodbye to him in peace."

Milei, a staunch ally of Israel and defender of the Western axis, highlighted Trump's role as a leader committed to the values of freedom and life. "Thank you, President Trump. Your commitment to life, freedom, and peace has restored hope to the world. It's an honor to consider you not only an ally in the defense of those values, but also a dear friend and an example of leadership that inspires all of us who believe in freedom," he stated.
A recognition of Trump's leadership
The Argentine president's statement is set in a historic context: the announcement of the end of the war in Gaza and the release of all hostages held by Hamas, the result of negotiations led by Trump. The agreement was celebrated by international leaders and marked a turning point in the Middle East.

Since the beginning of his administration, Milei has consolidated a strategic relationship with Washington and has politically aligned himself with the former Republican president, whom he considers a global reference for liberalism and the defense of the West. The Argentine leader's message reinforces that ideological and diplomatic alignment, at a time of international realignment driven by the peace achieved in the region.
With the release of the three Argentines, Trump's mediation not only closes a painful chapter for the affected families, but also reinforces his role as a central figure in the new political and diplomatic order of the Middle East.
